Admission process notes:
All applicants selected for a secondary will receive an email from the Admissions Office with links to two forms: the UF Professional School Application (required of all applicants regardless of whether they have attended UF or not) and the UF COM Secondary itself, which functions on the separate portal connected to AMCAS.
Requirements notes:
The University of Florida College of Medicine requires a minimum of 3 letters and we will accept up to 6 and no more, regardless of the AMCAS allowance. A Pre-Health Advising Committee letter or packet may fulfill our letter requirements depending on format. If an individualized committee letter is provided (not counting a simple cover letter), it is most helpful when it is evaluative not just narrative, that is, when the advisory committee offers a basis for comparing the applicant overall or by categories in a specific way to the premedical population or applicant pool of the institution. We strongly prefer individual recommendations which are referenced in the committee letter to be appended in their entirety or alternately uploaded separately by the recommenders.
GPA, MCAT notes:
Prior to the final MCAT score release for calendar year, an MCAT score is not required to receive a secondary invitation; however, a minimum score of 500 earned no earlier than 2 years before calendar year and taken no later than September 14 of calendar year is a requirement for interview consideration for entry application cycle.
Deadlines notes:
All application materials including the required MCAT score are due no later than January 15; therefore, we cannot consider a January MCAT administration for the same calendar year entry unless we receive the scores by January 15 of that year.
